Automate VoiceMail Dialing?

Is it possible to auto-dial Voice Mail from the home screen?  I've placed the VM icon on the home screen, but can't seem to find a way to autodial it.  Tried the Motorola Widget, but it just shows a phone type (work) and a plus sign that are grayed out.  Would like to automate the process, so that when tapped, it autodials.  Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

There is a number of widget apps that allow this, try QDial or One Touch Widget.... Remember that the number for VM is *86

 

Also you can press and hold the #1 on phone, it is set to call voicemail by default.

The best way I have found is to add the voicemail num,ber as a contact. Its usually there by default. Then you can add a few pauses and your PIN too, this will dial it up, then play new massagers without you having to punch in your code ect.

 

Once in the contacts its easy to put a shortcut on the home screen.

Thanks, that works great, however the question is seeing if this can work with a one-touch function----without having to hit the "dial" button after tapping the VM icon.  Likely will need to use an app to accomplish this.
